Autoyast swap auto partitioning doesn't work correctly

English Install/Boot/Login
1

Hi community,

I’m using autoyast to perform an auto installation of tumbleweed on a laptop with 16 gigs of RAM using an existing manual install as a template.
As seen in the code snippet form the autoinst.xml file posted below, I have configured the partitioning for boot/efi to auto, swap to auto and root as max.
The problem is that during installation yast sets the SWAP to 1 gig instead of 16.
Anyone know how to fix this? I can’t resort to hardcoding the SWAP as i’ll use this autoyast config on laptops with various RAM sized.
I have attached images with the desired disk partitioning I’m trying to emulate with autoyast.

Instead of »auto«, try

<size>16G</size>

… the other partitions should then max out the rest of the disk after AutoYaST fulfills this constraint.

Like I said in my original post, i can’t set the SWAP to hardcoded values as the config will be used on machines with various RAM sizes. That’s why I used the auto, as the documentation says it should set the swap according to the RAM size of each machine automatically.

Is this a bug in the autoyast?
